grunt-ts hangs forever

[henck]

grunt-ts (5.5.1 stable) hangs forever when executed. It produces no output or errors, not even when the verbose option is specified. The configuration is the minimalist one:

module.exports = function(grunt) {
  grunt.initConfig({
    ts: {
      default : {
        src: ["**/*.ts", "!node_modules/**"]
      }
    }
  });
  grunt.loadNpmTasks("grunt-ts");
  grunt.registerTask("default", ["ts"]);
};

The alternative grunt-typescript module works correctly, so I believe required dependencies were correctly installed. node.js was installed today (Dec 4, '17), including npm (updated with -g).

What can I do to find out what's wrong?

Hi @henck - sorry for the trouble. Did you happen to try the latest beta?

Hello @nycdotnet,

I've installed grunt-ts-6.0.0-beta.19 and I'm happy to report that it no longer hangs.

@henck great. Is it working OK for you? I am going to remove the beta tag in the next week or so. Thank you.
